<!– /11440465/Dna_Article_Middle_300x250_BTF –>Kerala is a land fertile for ‘jihadi terrorism’ and the Communist Party of India (Marxist) and the Congress have done nothing to eliminate the threat, the state’s BJP unit said on Saturday.BJP national executive member V Muraleedharan also claimed here that the reported presence of Keralites in global terror outfit ISIS was the “result of the growing jihadi terrorism” in the state.”The stand taken by the Congress and CPI(M), who have ruled the state alternatively all these years, cannot be taken lightly by us in this regard,” he told reporters here.Muraleedharan accused both the major political parties in the state of “doing nothing” to eliminate the “threat”, even though its roots had spread “far and wide”.The BJP leader also claimed that the “shrinking political space” for the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML), a key partner in the opposition, the Congress-led UDF, also played a role in the spread of the “jihadi terrorism” in Kerala.
